you may have to use javascript, cgi, or asp.

I recently added a Bulletin Board to my site using a script from Matt's Script Archive (he has quite a selection). You can find the script for the bulletin board at

You will need access to the cgi-bin on your server. If you've never used cgi scripts before I'm sure that site has information that will help you do it. Also, this script works fine on our NT server.<br>
<br>
Good luck!<br>

There is a simple discussion group 'bot' in Frontpage that can be added by using a template that is on one of the sample sites (don't ask me to find it again though, you'll have to hunt around).

big roadblick....before you can run *any* message board; you'll have to find a host that supports CGI; otherwise you're just gonna run into dead-end after dead-end. <p>-Robherc<br><a href=mailto:robherc@netzero.net>robherc@netzero.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>*nix installation & program collector/reseller.
